How to Overcome Addiction to Cooked Food

[Guest guest]

Great post Doug on how to quit smoking.

 

I think we could apply it to quitting cooked food. Much of the cooked

food eating is also for social reasons. So just eat and do nothing else

while eating. This may help some people out. I’ve kept your post below

so that people can try to apply this same idea to cooked food.

Please, allow me Peter.

I must tell my story, because it worked so well. Many years ago, I

had to use a restroom, and there was nothing else to read but a

Readers Digest magazine. Otherwise I wouldn't be caught dead reading

Readers Digest, but I must give credit where credit is due. Anyway

there was an article about quitting smoking. It was written by a

psychiatrist who had developed this system to help his wife quit. To

make a long story short I had been smoking for 25 years and quit.

Here is the system; you set a date when you will stop smoking. I made

mine about 1 ½ months in the future until that date I could smoke as

much as I wanted, but I could only smoke alone, and while doing

nothing else, no talking, no reading, no sitting on the pot, nothing.

(Once again I chose the restroom). The first day my habit dropped to

5 cigarettes a day. What happens is that you get over the habit of

smoking. Smoking can be very social and there are social triggers to

smoking like smoking after a meal, or while talking, or drinking. You

need to adjust to living your life without cigarettes. Then when the

date to stop comes, you only have to deal with the addiction. I have

not smoked since. That was 1983. I had tried to quit many times

before and nothing worked. I also read in another article that if you

try to quit and fail, keep trying, and you will find a way that is

best for you. Don't ever stop trying.
